Clove Launch Stills

Preity Zinta will see in VIDESH

We bumped into Preity Zinta recently at a filmy do and what made us smile was Preity’s ever feisty attitude. “Who was that man who kept pushing me while I was taking the stairs? If I get to know who he is, I’d slap him”, said Preity flashing those dimples as soon as she made a grand entry at the event.

Anyways the interesting piece of info which she gave us was her film’s new name. She told us, “‘Heaven on earth’ will now be known as Videsh." Apparently the title has been changed so that the Indian audiences can identify the film and its protagonist who faces domestic violence when away from the country.

Now considering Preity’s ‘Videshi’ accent even while she speaks Hindi and her liking for Videshi brands, this seems the perfect name!

Saif and Kareena Would be a Terroiest in ........

Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor will playing as a terroiest in Rensil D'silva's next film, would be making his directorial debut with the Saif-Kareena-Vivek Oberoi starrer to be produced under the banner of Dharma Productions. The buzz in the media circles is that the intense film is titled Jihaad but Rensil denied this rumor. "No...my film is not called Jihaad. It's a name that the media seems to have given the film but it's not the official title", says Rensil .

While the story of the film has been written by Karan Johar, Rensil has worked on the screenplay of the film. An interesting fact however is that instead of Dharma favorites Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy, this time it would be Salim-Sulaiman who would be composing music for this film.

There is a strong buzz that Saif and Kareena are playing terrorists in the film but the director is not ready to reveal much. "I can't reveal plot points or character sketches at this point of time", says the writer turned director, who doesn't deny the news.

Apart from Saif, Kareena and Vivek Oberoi the film was supposed to star Tara Sharma. However, the actress is due to have her first baby soon and hence had to back out of the project. Minissha Lamba would now be essaying that part. The supporting cast also includes Kirron Kher, Om Puri and some talented new faces.
